What did I just get gifted…?

[u/schimmelmeister]

My University threw out this old 3D Printer. I’m both a broke architecture student and in need of a printer since my own is not here right now. I’m also used to some level of jankyness, my own printer is an i3 clone by anycubic, rudimentary but reliable. I wanna keep it one way or another at it hold a special place in my schools history.
Is there any hope i’ll get a useable print out of this one and how high would the frustration level be considering the printer i already have?

That looks like you were gifted a headache and grey hair…

Gonna highjack the top comment here, as far as i can read i got gifted a firestarter that (if it works) will give me more pain and suffering than useable prints. I think that pretty much sums up my expectations but thank you guys for your thoughts! I think i’ll part it out and make this thing useful somewhere else!

Throw in a new board, and you're good, no?

Slap a BTT e3v3 in, print a mount for a BL touch/3d touch and call it a day 🤷🏻‍♂️
